Bitcoin and Starbucks
The physically-backed Bitcoin futures exchange also made note of such plans in its Medium post from October 28. However, this is a far more direct confirmation that the consumer app is actively being tested. The app’s release will almost definitely coincide with the testing of cryptocurrency-related payments with Starbucks in Q1 and Q2 of 2020. Although there is room for speculation, the consumer app will likely support trading and purchases of goods with cryptocurrencies.Bakkt Trading Volume Increasing
Bakkt’s volume has been exploding as of late — which has shocked the naysayers. As BeInCrypto reported, the amount of traded contracts on the exchange boomed last week. On November 8, Bakkt reported around $15.6M in daily volume.Although it started October slowly, the volume has picked up throughout November. It remains to be seen whether Bakkt can keep up with this momentum going into December. An app for retail investors would certainly boost its trading volume even further — and we can likely expect more details before year’s end.Daily summary of Thursday's Bakkt Bitcoin Monthly Futures:
